Description of problem: Because Japanese sentence is processed as if it is western one word, line break is not inserted in the sequence of Japasese chatercters. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): man-pages-ja-20130815-1.fc20.noarch man-pages-3.53-3.fc20.noarch groff-base-1.22.2-8.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: Everytime. Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install man-pages-ja 2. LANG="ja_JP.UTF-8" man man 3. Actual results: Layout of output manual is corrupted. Expected results: Japanese sentense line may break in sequence to typesetting Japanese text correctly. Additional info: /usr/share/groff/current/tmac/ja.tmac defines this rule. man command works correctly when I append ".do mso ja.tmac" description to /usr/share/groff/current/tmac/andoc.tmac I reported this bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1124366 , too.
there are no way to do anything for that in man-pages-ja. as you are aware it's a groff issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1124366 ***
